Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis signals support for 'Don't Say Gay' bill

Despite fierce opposition from Democrats and LGBTQ advocates, the bill is gaining momentum in the Florida Legislature and is on the agenda for Tuesday's meeting of Senate Education Committee. A House version of the bill already received a favorable vote from its Education Committee in January. 

Opponents of the bill warn that it would lead to further stigmatization of gay, lesbian and transgender children, causing more bullying and suicides within an already marginalized community. They say the bill would eliminate LGBTQ history from the curriculum and prevent teachers from having discussions with their classrooms if questions about sexual orientation and gender identity come up.

>Don't talk about white people destroying thriving Black communities -- it didn't exist. 

>Don't talk about the existence of LGBTQ Americans -- they don't exist.

Holy Crap! Can you believe this?

The Florida Republican Senate controlled by Ron DeSantis is pushing through a bill that just passed a committee vote that would allow parents to sue a school (attorney fees if they win) if their child requests a vegetarian meal for lunch and they are not consulted.

Sen. @loriberman : "Am I right to read that this bill would allow a parent to sue a school if their child requests a vegetarian meal for lunch and they are not consulted? 

 Sen. Baxley: "Yes."

Suing over a vegetarian lunch? Is this "owning the libs" because a kid might not want to eat meat? 

I think not.

It's intimidation and control. Make the public school systems so susceptible to frivolous lawsuits that it bankrupts them, then let the private, for-profit religious schools roll in and take over to indoctrinate children. Straight out of the Betsy DeVos playbook.
